UPDATED List of Current Cruise Directors (CD)


Recommended Posts

With Carly discussed now, any thoughts on Drew Devine? :confused:

 

Drew is great. Had him many times on Monarch (or was it Majesty??). He is a music major and is very knowledgeable. His TV show theme trivia is outstanding. His Quest will keep you jumping. He is high energy, not as frantic as Ricky Matthews, but he's Canadian with that Canadian self-depreciating humor.

We feel the same way about Drew, and it was Monarch, and Mariner before that.

Awesome, thanks! At this point I've had John Blair, Graham Seymour, Topi Ylonen, and Carlos Torres - out of those I've liked Graham the best and Blair the least.

Well, it looks like Dru Pavlov will be the CD on my next cruise. Does anyone want to share their views of him?

 

Donna,

Had Dru on our 4/12/15 Quantum cruise. He was great, very visible & personable. Good sense of humor. The Love & Marriage Game & the Quest were a hoot with him & Hugo. Don't think you will be disappointed.

Thanks for all your hard work keeping us all updated on this board.

You may also want to ask this on the Celebrity board, Donna - I know Dru was with them for several years before coming over to Royal.
Hi Donna we are on the same cruise i ask few cruise directors on facebook about him and also one passanger that was on the Quantum with him and they all say he very good cruise director.

 

Donna,

Had Dru on our 4/12/15 Quantum cruise. He was great, very visible & personable. Good sense of humor. The Love & Marriage Game & the Quest were a hoot with him & Hugo. Don't think you will be disappointed.

Can someone please find out when Carlos hands off to Michelle on Majesty? (and for how long Michelle will be on?)

 

Carlos told me that Michelle was covering his vacation and then he was expecting to return to Her Majesty and I think he said 10/27 was the date he expected it to be.

Can someone please find out:

 

Who is following Dan on Adventure at the end of August? Exact handover date?

 

Who is following Mitch on Grandeur as of Aug 23?

 

Is Rich Edwards returning to the schedule? (will he be on Grandeur in August?)

 

Has Carlos begun his vacation and handed off to Michelle on Majesty yet?

 

Who is following Amy on Radiance in September?

 

Is Mercedes still on Vision? Will she remain there until Steve returns from vacation in September?

He expected to be starting his vacation on 10/27. I have not heard from him anything different.

 

I'm confused. A few posts ago, and a few pages ago, you said that Michelle was covering Carlos' vacation and he was returning on Oct 27. He's been on for 4 months already (since March) and is due to begin his vacation this week. Michelle should be covering sometime soon until Oct 27. I am looking to clarify "sometime soon" to the exact date, which should be this week.

 

Edited to add: Michelle posted on FB on July 22 that this was her last week home before sailing the Caribbean (supporting my posting that Carlos is beginning his vacation this week, and will be handing off to her). She also posted that she will be joining Rhapsody in November for the Brazilian season

Sorry....sorry....he should be back....I am trying to follow his thread back and forth....and I got confused. I just tried to look at Michelle's FB page and it sounds as if she is currently on vacation and heading to a new assignment in a week or so. Hard to understand from her writing what ship she is heading to.

 

SO SORRY, for confusion.

No Problem. I get very confused too.

 

Michelle's post does say that she'll be in the Caribbean, so by process of elimination, she's joining Majesty (even though that's technically Bahamas). The other ships in that region all have CDs assigned.
